      He may be but can we not equate pedophilia with a certain look? It let’s a lot of bad people get away with it and throws innocent people in harms way.

        They do have a certain look. Just go on one of those Megan’s law registers online and look at the pictures for a while. That weird smile

          The ones that get caught may fit your internal bias, but that doesn’t mean that all people who look like that are pedophiles or that all pedophiles look a certain way. You’re letting attractive people who molest children get away with it more easily by thinking that.

        You surely have some peer-approved scientific sources to for your claims? Also, “can we not” automatically makes me think of you as some brain dead meme kid with no identity other than being “good at” social media.

            Right? Like it’s not a matter of scientific inquiry, it’s equivalent to saying “all thieves are black people”. You don’t need a peer reviewed study to refute that lmao

          What? You don’t need a peer reviewed study to know that pedophilia has absolutely nothing to do with a person’s physical appearance.

      My Québecois friend had the perfect expression for this freak: “He looks like he smells like sour milk.”
